Study finds AI reduces underdiagnosis of Black patients with common heart failure

A study led by King’s College London (KCL) has revealed that Black patients are less likely to be underdiagnosed with a common type of heart failure when using artificial intelligence (AI), compared to in routine practice. The research, funded by the British Heart Foundation, could help researchers understand the extent of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) underdiagnosis across ethnicities, as well as reduce bias and improve diagnoses. Heart failure is estimated to affect more than one million people in the UK, 50% of whom have HFpEF, which occurs when the heart pumps out blood normally but cannot fill up as well, leading to signs and symptoms of failure such as breathlessness, fatigue and dizziness. Using an AI algorithm called Natural Language Processing (NLP), which reads and understands medical text and analyses electronic medical records, researchers identified nearly 1,973 patients who met the current European Society of Cardiology guidelines ...

【EXPERT Q&A】Do foreign trade without import and export rights are there other ways to export?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: When foreign trade enterprises do not possess import and export rights, there are indeed alternative methods to achieve exports. These methods primarily encompass: I. Export Under Billing This refers to units without import and export rights using the name of another import and export company for export purposes. The specific operational process is as follows: 1.Purchase of Export Documents: Acquire a set of export customs declaration documents, which will be used for customs clearance procedures. 2.Submission of Customs Declaration Materials: Submit the purchased customs declaration materials to a customs broker or freight forwarder for customs clearance. Once the goods are successfully declared and released, the process of export under billing is completed. 3.Handling of Customs Clearance Documents: The information used for customs declaration may differ from the header company for customs clearance documents provided to the recipient at the destination port, but documents must be consistent, meaning ...

Cell adhesion and starvation found to be key drivers of pattern formation in keratinocytes

Cell-cell adhesion-induced patterning in keratinocytes can be explained by just starvation and strong adhesion, Hokkaido University researchers find. Fingerprints are one of the best-recognised examples of pattern formation by epithelial cells. The primary cells in the epithelium are the keratinocytes, and they are known to form patterns at the microscopic and macroscopic levels. While factors affecting this pattern formation have been reported, the exact mechanisms underlying the process are still not fully understood. A team of researchers, led by Associate Professor Ken Natsuga at the Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, have revealed that cell-cell adhesion governs pattern formation in keratinocytes. Their findings were published in the journal Life Science Alliance. Ken Natsuga, Associate Professor, Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, said, “In this study, we used an immortalized keratinocyte cell line, called HaCaT, which retains all the properties of normal keratinocytes. In order to ensure that our findings were accurate, we ...

Humor could be an effective parenting tool, study suggests

They say that laughter is the best medicine, but it could be a good parenting tool too, according to a new study led by researchers from Penn State. In a pilot study, the research team found that most people viewed humor as an effective parenting tool and that a parent or caregiver’s use of humor affected the quality of their relationship with their children. Among those whose parents used humor, the majority viewed their relationship with their parents and the way they were parented in a positive light. The researchers published their findings in the journal PLOS One. Benjamin Levi, professor of pediatrics and humanities at Penn State College of Medicine and senior author of the study, said, “Humor can teach people cognitive flexibility, relieve stress, and promote creative problem solving and resilience. My father used humor and it was very effective. I use humor in my clinical practice and ...

CMT Research Foundation invests in research project to develop treatments for CMTs

The CMT Research Foundation (CMTRF) has invested in a research project based at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, US, to develop new vehicles for delivering gene therapies to treat several types of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT). The new project aims to improve the treatment efficacy and safety of gene therapies for forms of CMTs, including CMT1A, the most prevalent form, which accounts for 50% of all patients with nerve-damaging disorder. Recognised as a rare peripheral neuropathy disease that affects nearly three million people globally, CMT is a group of inherited conditions that damage the peripheral nerves, which are found outside the main central nervous system. The development of safe and effective gene therapies for CMT requires the delivery of a therapeutic genetic payload into the peripheral nervous system, which specifically targets Schwann cells, a type of glial cells that help form the myelin sheath around the nerve fibres, for types of CMT including ...

Francis Crick scientists reveal how cells ‘raise the alarm’ when damaged or infected

Scientists at the Francis Crick Institute have revealed how cells ‘raise the alarm’ when acids leak out of their compartments if damaged or infected with bacteria or a virus, which could be useful in developing new drugs. The study published in Molecular Cell reveals that one protein known as V1H, which brings in machinery required for autophagy – the degradation of parts of the cell – is involved in this process. Cells in the body need acidic compartments for digestion and recycling nutrients, of which acid is pumped into them by a group of proteins called the V-ATPase or the ‘proton pump’. When the cells are damaged or infected, acid leaks out of these compartments and cells need to be able to detect this. The new study has revealed how cells are able to detect acid leaks and that the V-ATPase complex is able to raise the alarm if the ...

US judge denies initial attempt by Novartis to block generic Entresto launch

Novartis’s bid to block the launch of a biosimilar for its best-selling drug Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan) got off to a faltering start, as the drugmaker failed to convince a US court that MSN Pharmaceuticals’ (MSNPI) copycat infringed on a patent. Richard Andrews, district judge for the District of Delaware, ruled the likelihood that Novartis would win the lawsuit was not high enough, meaning a preliminary injunction was not granted. While Andrews stated that stopping MSNPI’s generic launch was not justified, he did order a temporary 72-hour halt while Novartis goes to the US Court of Appeal to seek an injunction, as per a 12 August court document first released by Reuters. The hearing is part of a lawsuit initiated by Novartis to fend off MSNPI’s generic – which received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval last month – to protect sales for its heart failure blockbuster. Novartis’s reference drug was ...
